Is there a website of non supported linux hardware in NZ?
WARNING: This hardware limits you to one choice of software system. The manufacture does not support your right to choose.
Recently we purchased a brand new HP computer from Noel Leeming. I would have never done this in the past but I did it this time without question I was happy to support HP.
I expect everything in that box to be supported by Linux. I purchase everything else from DSE because they support Linux on as many of their products as they can.
While I agree with Steve that we are heading off topic a bit, it's been a while sense we've and a rant of this type on clug and I think that Easter is a very good time to be considering such issues.
